Union Minister of State for Railways Ravneet Singh Bittu expressed disappointment with the Congress in Punjab, stating that the party has prioritized symbolic gestures over genuine organizational development. He highlighted the extensive list of appointments within the party, including senior leaders being assigned multiple roles, questioning the necessity for such designations.
Singh criticized the Congress for focusing on accommodating leaders rather than strengthening grassroots support, leading to disillusionment among ordinary party workers. In contrast, he emphasized the BJP’s readiness for the upcoming elections in Punjab, with party President Nitin Nabin actively engaging with workers to bolster the party’s foundation.
The Union Minister mentioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s upcoming visit to Punjab for inaugurating key development projects, underscoring the government’s commitment to the state’s progress through substantial investments in various sectors. Singh highlighted the stark difference between a government prioritizing development and an opposition embroiled in internal adjustments and role distributions.
The Congress recently announced key appointments for organizational and election-related positions in Punjab, with familiar faces like Amarinder Singh Raja Warring and Pratap Singh Bajwa retaining significant roles. Charanjit Singh Channi and Sukhpal Singh Khaira were assigned pivotal positions, signaling the party’s strategic moves ahead of the elections.
